Interesting. I've never seen that syntax before. I'm currently using a simple rule like this: ipfw add 05000 deny log ip from any to any src-ip table(2) Is there any reason I should avoid doing it this way? I should also note, I'm running ifpw inline (using if_bridge), and I'm easily looking at several thousand addresses in the table. Is there any known limitation on the number of entries in a table I should be aware of? It sounds like I'll be fine with dumping all addresses in a single table. \\korodev _______________________________________________ freebsd-ipfw@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ipfw To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ipfw-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
